Faith Is Spelled RISK
Though we all like to be comfortable, we encourage each other to get out of their comfort zones with the phrase Faith Is Spelled RISK. We challenge them to take the risk of making God’s invisible love visible by serving others through acts of kindness and asking people, “How can I pray for you?”
Maybe that’s how you came to FAITHisSpelledRISK.com. Maybe someone bought you a coffee and shared an outreach card with you. Or maybe someone prayed for you and gave you their wristband as a reminder that you were prayed for. How ever you got here, thanks for checking us out.
Here's a great verse from the Bible that summarizes the Good News of God’s love for us:
This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the wrath-removing-sacrifice for our sins (1 John 4:10).
This verse deals with …
The Problem - Our sinful rebellion against God and God’s just anger against it
The Solution - God’s forgiveness through the gift of Jesus’ death on the cross
The Motivation - God’s amazing love for us
That’s the Good News. And now we encourage you to take the R-I-S-K of believing it and becoming a follower of Jesus.
Faith=RISK
R - RECEIVE God’s Forgiveness
Get real with God about your sin, believe that He sent Jesus to die for your sin, and ask Him to forgive you.
I - INVITE Jesus to Lead Your Life
Get off the throne and let Jesus take charge of your life.
S - SHARE Your New Life with Others
Let others know that you are a follower of Jesus and join a community of believers.
K - KNOW that God Loves You
Be assured that you are now a child of God and trust that He’ll always be there for you. So faith isn’t just spelled RISK. It’s also spelled ASSURANCE. God really wants you to know just how much He loves you.
Here’s a prayer to help you take the first step of following Jesus:
God, I am sorry for my sin. I have rebelled against Your authority and have lived for myself instead of You. Please forgive me.
Thank you for the gift of Jesus’ death on the cross. I believe in Jesus and receive Your forgiveness, love and life. I commit myself to follow Jesus’ leadership. Help me to live for You now. Amen.
If you need help taking the RISK of turning from your sin and trusting in Jesus, let us know. Or if you have taken that RISK, let us know that too. We would love to celebrate with you and support you in your new life with Jesus.
